  • 1 baby bok choy, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 tsp Korean chilli flakes
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 Tbsp white vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C.
  2. Prep & make kimchi. Combine all cucumber kimchi ingredients together in a bowl with a pinch of salt and set aside to marinate.
  3. Prep & cook cauli rice. Toss cauli rice ingredients together on a lined oven tray and cook in oven for 15-20 minutes, until tender. Season to taste.
